My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Maya!

A serene eight-and-a-half-year-old brindle-coated sweetheart currently living in Doylestown, PA, whose quiet presence is like a soft blanket on a chilly evening. With a gentle gaze and calm demeanor, Maya may take a moment to warm up but when she does, she’ll melt right into your lap and your heart.

Weighing in at around 35 pounds, Maya is a medium-sized girl with a passive personality and a preference for the cozy comforts of indoor life. Her nickname? “Vampire dog” because she much prefers the nighttime for her outdoor adventures! She isn’t one to demand constant attention, but when she chooses to snuggle up beside you, it’s like being chosen by a tiny, fuzzy queen.

Maya hasn’t shown interest in toys much, especially after realizing her companion Kalle can be a bit protective over them, but she finds her joy in soft bedding, calm environments, and being close to her trusted humans. She’s crate trained, house-trained, and takes everything at her own peaceful pace. Thunder makes her nervous and she prefers a slower approach when meeting new people. Quick movements can unsettle her, but patience and treats go a long way in helping her feel safe.

Though Maya hasn’t had formal training, her quiet nature makes her a lovely presence in a calm home. She’s not a fan of cats and may be a bit shy around unfamiliar dogs, but she remains gentle and respectful.

Maya has been Kalle’s quiet companion for years, and they’ve built a strong bond together. While Maya would be perfectly content in a loving home of her own, she would be especially happy if Kalle could join her in this next chapter.
